-How do people transmit information and how do people receive information? -Ignore the observer perspective. You want the user's perspective. -communicating internally and externally -How can you gain information to bridge the gap of your situation to attain your goal? Baggio Ch. 4-6: -Students build upon prior knowledge and use visuals to enhance this. Can be in context to make a connection or out of context to create an unusual experience. -Learning style with help determine method of instruction: VAKOG-Visual, auditory, kinesthetic, olfactory, and gustatory. -Most people are visual learners -Cognitive load, working memory we all have limits, and we get rid of what we don't need. -Visuals should be simple so that users can focus on the important information. You don't want to overwhelm people with colors, text, or images. Design Bootcamp: -Empathize, Define, Ideate(Create), Prototype, Test -Empathize to talk about specific needs and create a dialogue -Define the problem you are trying to address -Ideate start with the obvious and work your way out -Prototype to test an idea and put it to use -Test to see what worked and what still needs working on -Show don't just talk, Be a human, Be clear, Try new things, Set goals, Be hands on, Work with others -EMPATHY: Assume a beginners mindset "what are they doing, how are they doing it, why are they doing it?" Paint a whole person picture. Clark: -instructional methods such as using facts, concepts, a process, procedure, and basic principles impact learning more than the media used. -learners need explicit training and time to practice. Note taking doesn't count as practice. -lessons have 4 parts: introduction, knowledge/learning goal, an exercise, and summary. -writing organization to optimally gain information. As teachers all we do with our students is transmit information as best we can. We use anchor charts to summarize or show how to do something. We teach students how to gain information from charts and tables in textbooks. Something I need to work on is my Design Thinking. Right now we're ramping up to the CAASPP and I'm working with a small group of students to set individual learning goals to focus on over the next few weeks. This process should really be with each student over the duration of the school year so that students can take more control over their learning.

Totally agree when you say that we try our best to transmit information, something that truly takes much attention. Especially when thinking about design thinking, when theres so many different ways of giving information- it can be quite a process. I don't have much insight within a classroom so its interesting to know how engaging you are with your students in understanding where they are at and developing goals as ways to have them take more control in their learning. That's awesome!

I love that you are goal setting for testing goals. I did a boot camp myself for ELPAC. I am curious to know how you will bridge the gap for testing? What tools you are using, etc.? I agree that small or individualize instruction is the most beneficial to students to build relationships and find personalized motivations for each student to achieve. Good Luck!
